Chapter 41 Don't panic, wait for me to add a buff
"Okay, Xiao Haochen's mount companion is not a big target, so you can come with us."
"Be careful next time. Our target is the demon scouts. Once we kill enough of them, evacuate immediately!"
Lin Jialu gave one final reminder.
"understand!"
As they were about to enter the demon clan's territory, everyone naturally did not dare to be careless.
Long Haochen and Li Xin walked silently to the front, while the Chen brothers stood on the left and right sides of the team, surrounding Lin Jialu in the center.
Ye Tian was at the end of the team, and the six of them looked like a diamond-shaped arrow.
Cross the hills and officially enter the demon territory.
What came into view was a vast plain that stretched as far as the eye could see, and the pungent smell of blood was blown into everyone's nostrils by the wind.
It has been thousands of years since the demons came into the world, and I wonder how much blood of humans and demons is left on the battlefield before me.
Ye Tian could clearly feel the tension in the crowd.
Lin Jialu lightly pointed the staff in her hand and chanted a spell silently.
The next moment, a transparent bird-shaped shadow rose into the air, spread its wings, circled, and then flew away into the distance.
The girl's eyes were also covered with a faint light.
Eagle Eye is a must-learn magic for magicians.
It is possible to create a magic eagle to observe far away from the air. The higher the level of cultivation, the greater the range of observation of the Eagle Eye Technique.
It can be said to be a very useful reconnaissance magic.
After a while, Lin Jialu regained her composure and spoke softly, "No demon soldiers have been found nearby for the time being."
"Perhaps we can continue to advance and find a slightly more concealed place to ambush."
The plain in front of us was too vast and not suitable as an ambush point.
The group advanced very slowly, one could even call it cautious.
He could use the few shelters on the plain to hide himself, and with the help of Eagle Eyes to scout around him, he didn't have to worry about being blinded.
Every time she arrived at a hiding place, Lin Jialu would mark it on the map.
Until the night deepened.
The environment became quiet, with only the moonlight and starlight barely providing a certain degree of illumination.
With their minds highly tense, they couldn't help feeling a little tired.
But along the way, he didn't see even a shadow of a demon soldier.
"What's going on? Are all the demons so lax?"
After Lin Jialu used the Eagle Eye technique again without success, Li Xin finally lost her patience.
Logically speaking, the demons should be active at night.
They were now only a hundred miles away from the demon army camp. Not to mention encountering a large number of demon troops, it would be too strange if they didn't encounter any at all.
Please note that there is a time limit for obtaining admission tickets.
There are only three days in total. If we surpass them, we won’t have enough time to go to the Temple League to participate in the trials.
"If all else fails, how about I ride Rose in and take a stroll, actively luring the demons to send troops to hunt me down?"
Li Xin took the initiative to put forward her own ideas.
However, before anyone else could respond, Ye Tian, who was sitting on the ground, suddenly moved.
He turned into a streak of light, drew out the long sword hanging behind his waist with his right hand, and stabbed it suddenly towards a cluster of bushes.
"Pfft!"
The long sword with the attribute of light penetrated through.
Green blood spurted out, dripping onto the ground with a sizzling sound.
"Brother, what's going on?!"
The others also reacted instantly and tightened their weapons one after another. Chen Si even raised his shield to protect Lin Jialu.
"Demon scout."
Ye Tian drew out his sword and kicked the demon corpse that appeared from the invisible state in front of several people.
"It turned out to be a demon, and we didn't even notice it when it got so close!"
Looking at the demon corpse in front of them, everyone was surprised and frightened. "I have used the Eagle Eye Technique to scout it several times!"
Lin Jialu was filled with fear, but she felt more guilty.
As a magician, she not only failed to notice the enemy's approach in advance, but also allowed him to get so close.
It's already a dereliction of duty!
"Sister Lin, this is not your fault. It's mainly because this kind of demon is a little special."
Ye Tian comforted softly.
"Brother Tian, what kind of demon is this?" Long Haochen asked calmly.
"These are shadow demons. They have no attack or defense capabilities, but they are very good at hiding."
"Shadow Demons are responsible for reconnaissance of demons. Only priests of at least level 4 can spot them, so they are also called shadows in the darkness."
If Ye Tian’s strength and mental power were not strong enough, he might not be able to discover these hiding little mice.
"I see, it can actually become invisible. No wonder the Eagle Eye Technique doesn't work."
After hearing Ye Tian’s explanation, Lin Jialu felt much better.
"So our whereabouts should have been exposed!"
Suddenly thinking of something, Long Haochen hurriedly spoke again.
Several people subconsciously looked at Ye Tian.
"I'm not sure either," Ye Tian shook his head gently, "Although I killed the Shadow Demon as soon as I found it, no one knows whether the demons have the means to pass on information."
"Even if not, the long-term disappearance of the Shadow Demon who went out for reconnaissance would definitely make the demons realize that something is wrong."
"What should we do now?" Li Xin couldn't help but ask.
"My advice is to wait and see!"
Ye Tian suggested softly, "We only have three days. Instead of searching aimlessly, we might as well wait for the demons to take the initiative to attack."
"The Shadow Demons didn't return on time. The Demon Camp might send people to investigate the situation. They are our hunting targets!"
After hearing this, Lin Jialu turned to look at other people.
"What's your opinion?"
"We have no problem with that."
Brothers Chen Chen and Chen Si quickly shook their heads.
Long Haochen also responded, "I think what Brother Tian said makes sense. We can wait for a while. If the demons don't react, we can think of another way."
"Okay, since everyone has no objection, then it's settled!"
Everyone gathered together again.
Lin Jialu still used the Eagle Eye technique from time to time to scout the surrounding situation, while the others faced in various directions.
However, there is only silence and desolation at night.
Until dawn gradually breaks in the sky, driving away the cold and darkness.
Ye Tian, who was leaning against a stone and dozing with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and growled at everyone.
"coming!"
These two short words shocked everyone's heart.
"It's underground!"
Lin Jialu and Long Haochen issued a warning at the same time.
One is a magician whose mental power is much stronger than that of melee professions, and the other is born with strong mental power.
"Do it!"
Ye Tian let out a light cry, tightly grasped the Shield of Light in his left hand, and raised the sword high in his right hand.
Aura of Faith, Gift of Protection, and Aura of Power!
Along with a low chant, three strange symbols appeared above Ye Tian's head at the same time, and then split into five streams of light that fell on the other people.
At the same time, a dazzling golden halo rose under everyone's feet.
Three fourth-level skills are completed in one go.
With Ye Tian's mastery of these skills, there is no so-called casting time at all. It is completed in almost an instant.
